High tension between An Brescia and Pallanuoto Trieste: championship final in the balance
An Brescia and Pallanuoto Trieste challenge each other for the championship final. Expulsions and tensions on the field, Bovo analyzes the crisis.

High-tension match in the Bianchi pool in Trieste
Everything will be decided on May 1st. An Brescia on one side, Trieste Water Polo on the other. In the middle, high tension between two teams that do not like each other. This is demonstrated by the expulsions of Guerrato and Razzi for fouls in the final, but not only. Meanwhile, Brescia finds itself with its back to the wall. In the two challenges, the Giulians were superior. Losing by one goal in game-1, dominating the challenge between friendly walls: 10-5 the final, a very hard lesson that tells of only one team in the water. Not the performance you expect from the leaders of the regular season, certainly a misstep that recalls the crisis experienced in the final of the season, with the defeat in the semifinal of the Italian Cup, the defeat with De Akker in the championship and the end of the race in the EuroCup. Sandro Bovo is clear in his analysis: "We attacked very badly. Many closed shots, with many arms in front, we didn't work well in width compared to usual. Then we were penalized by the exits of Ferrero and Irving, who have vision of the game and could have given us a hand. But compliments to them, they were superior". But no pressure for the "bella" that will be worth the championship final: "No burden. We knew it would be tough, now let's see what we can do at home, they were certainly more aggressive". For Brescia, Irving, Giri, Gianazza, Faraglia and Guerrato scored. Del Basso still dry, the number one danger is called Draskovic, author of 6 goals. TRIESTE-AN BRESCIA 10-5 (3-2, 2-1, 5-2, 0-0).
